I am trying to create business cards using the Kword 3.3.2 business card template.
The template is pre-configured for A4-szed paper. I reset it to US Letter.
The template has ten 52mm x 90mm (h x w) card images arranged in a 5vx2h array 
with 15mm margins on the left and right sides of the page. To get the printing to center 
properly within the cards, I set the page margin to 0 and the card width to 105mm.
The first bug is that only the first card frame image changed its width on the screen
although the frame properties had the box checked to propagate changes to the frame. 
All other 9 card frame imagess remained the old size although their size and margin 
properties showed the changes. 

Then I started adjusting the left card frames by dragging on the middle of the frame.
This worked, except that the whole frame moved away from its original vertical
position as I first dragged the left edge of the left frames toward the left edge of 
the paper and then dragged the right edge of the right frames toward the right 
edge of  the paper. When I was done, in spite of my best efforts, several of the 
frames were either overlapping or had gaps, both horizontal and vertical, between them.

If there is no way to automatically align the frames next to each other vertically and 
horizontally, there needs to be one. If there is a way to align the frames automatically, 
please tell me how to do it.

Thanks,
Dave Feustel
